Lack of energy?

I hit a pb today with a chest infection Member 3283, 1921 posts | Dead lifting earlier on I struggled my arse off. I managed 1 rep at a weight I done 2 triples with last time. I just didn't have it in me. I did do events yesterday so was a bit drained I guess and missed training most of last week as I was working away. What's the f**king crack? Pissed off and went home with my tail between my legs. Should I have just left training tonight? (Obvious I guess). Or would a simple energy boost drink thing have got me sorted? Sorry for the daft thread just annoyed like f**k | ||

 Hamstrings feel activated. Member 1107, 6964 posts SQ 220, BP 152.5, DL 252.5625.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | It's my experience that if I have done any work involving my erectors at all the day before I Deadlift I'm absolutely terrible in my Deadlift workout. I assume events training would have this same impact on me. | ||

I hit a pb today with a chest infection Member 3283, 1921 posts | Yeh I always warm up well, stretch/foam roll & 3/4 minutes on cross trainer every time. I foam roll throughout my workout most of the time, especially deads as my back plays up | ||

we ride at dawn Member 4363, 1442 posts SQ 310, BP 250, DL 320880.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | Hamstring/Glutes/Erector Spinae are much higher in Type IIA (FOG) and Type IIX (FG) than the rest of the body as a generalization. FOG/FG use creatine phosphate and glycogen (sugars) to function, which are easily depleted, as opposed to Type I (SO) that uses triglycerides (fats), and are harder to drain. Sounds like low carbs to me, especially post training. Smash the s**t out of nesquik milkshakes post training mate, maybe sup some creatine and see if this sorts it out, I'm sure it will help.... | ||

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | That's very interesting AMH, I am enjoying your posts allround. I usually do find if I am dehydrated/low on carbs that some muscles do just not want to work. | ||

This sounds like a good reason mate thankyou. I get about 50g of carbs post training at the moment and then my tea a couple of hours later. Any old carbs? Thanks | ||

I'd been progressing well for the last few weeks before I worked away last week. Seems to have threw me off track and messed everything up, gutted really as I feel f**ked. I did work 12 hour days every day last week and other chaps at work are still knackered too so maybe a lots down to that | ||
